Value of T-2 Mapping MRI for Prostate Cancer Detection and Classification

Background Currently, multi-parametric prostate MRI (mpMRI) consists of a qualitative T-2, diffusion weighted, and dynamic contrast enhanced imaging. Quantification of T-2 imaging might further standardize PCa detection and support artificial intelligence ...

T2 mapping for the characterization of prostate lesions

Tom Hilbert

Purpose Purpose of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of quantitative T2/ADC values in differentiating between PCa and lesions showing non-specific inflammatory infiltrates and atrophy, features of chronic prostatitis, as the most common his ...

A causal framework for classical statistical estimands in failure-time settings with competing events

Mats Julius Stensrud

In failure-time settings, a competing event is any event that makes it impossible for the event of interest to occur. For example, cardiovascular disease death is a competing event for prostate cancer death because an individual cannot die of prostate canc ...

An extended regulatory landscape drives Tbx18 activity in a variety of prostate-associated cell lineages

Christopher Chase Bolt, Soumya Negi

The evolutionarily conserved transcription factor, Tbx18, is expressed in a dynamic pattern throughout embryonic and early postnatal life and plays crucial roles in the development of multiple organ systems. Previous studies have indicated that this dynami ...

Intersubject local SAR variation for 7T prostate MR imaging with an eight-channel single-side adapted dipole antenna array

Özlem Ipek

PURPOSE: Surface transmit arrays used in ultra-high field body MRI require local specific absorption rate (SAR) assessment. As local SAR cannot be measured directly, local SAR is determined by simulations using dielectric patient models. In this study, the ...

Assessment of the effect of haematocrit-dependent arterial input functions on the accuracy of pharmacokinetic parameters in dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI

Nathalie Just

The detection and prognosis of prostate cancer in its early stages are critically important. It is therefore essential to improve the existing dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE MRI) techniques commonly used for the assessment of the tumour vascular enviro ...

The mis-regulation of gene transcription in the living cell can be the cause of complex human diseases like cancer. One challenge of the post-genomic era of biomedical research is the development of in vitro techniques for the rapid and cost-effective anal ...

In focused ultrasound surgery, high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) can be used to destroy pathological tissue deep inside the body without any damage to the surrounding normal tissue. This noninvasive technique has been used to treat malignant tumors ...
